Norway-based goalkeeper Adam Larsen Kwarasey has been axed from the Black Stars squad to face Uganda and Togo in next month’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, sources close to the player have told GHANAsoccernet.com.

The Stromsgodset captain has not received a call from Black Stars coach Kwesi Appiah informing him of his call-up and with the squad expected to be named on Wednesday it looks like he has been axed.

This means the shot-stopper will not be part of the squad to be unveiled by coach Kwesi Appiah following a Black Stars management committee meeting on Wednesday.

Kwarasey looks to have paid the price for questioning the competence of Black Stars goalkeepers’ trainer Nassam Yakubu following the World Cup in Brazil.

The shot-stopper lashed out at Yakubu in an interview with Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang hinting that he would not be part of the Black Stars set-up if the goalkeepers’ trainer is not changed.

With Yakubu, who is regarded by many as the finest goalkeepers’ trainer in the country, most unlikely to leave the post, Kwarasey will not play in the side unless something dramatic happens.

“It’s no point travelling to Ghana if it’s other things than how you perform that decides if you play or not,” Kwarasey told the Norwegian newspaper after the World Cup in Brazil.

Fatau Dauda was the preferred choice for Yakubu during the World Cup which seemed not to have gone down well with the Stromsgodset captain.

Kwarasey played in the match against the USA before Dauda took over the post in the subsequent matches against Germany and Portugal.

The absence of Kwarasey means other youngsters will be given the chance to impress the Black Stars coach.

Do you think Kwarasey should be dropped for lashing out after the World Cup? Make your views known in the box below:

Kwarasey feels bitter when Dauda is in post which doesnt auger well for team work.As a player,no matter how another player is chosen over you,you dont show bitterness.out of this same bitterness,it cost Sammy Adjei a place in the BS…Its a privilage to be called into the BS,its not a mandate.

It is human nature to express yourself. Expressing bitterness is not a sin, especially when you are right. It was not bitterness out of jealousy, it was bitterness out of not doing what was right by the technical team. Do you people really understand what you comment about? or you just like to type something because you can? Kwarasey was right in expressing his feelings. He did it the right way. He did not start a fight with anyone. He merely stated a fact. Who looses if they dont call him back? We all expressed bitterness when GFA failed us in Brazil. Does that mean we were wrong to express our disgust at them? If they ask for our support and prayers, so should we able to express ourselves when they dont do things right.

God is watching you journalists at the dirty way of finding money.You blokes have thrown your morals away and fighting for money.If Appiah is to release his squad on Wednesday,how did you know Kwarasey was dropped?.We are all watching to see if clueless Appiah will invite Fauda,who is still inactive.Is Yakubu the coach or just the keepers trainer?.

Kwarasey does not feel bitter when Dauda is in the post. He feels bitter when he work so hard to become Ghana’s number one and then dropped 45 minutes before a game because of Gyan and John Boye’s dictating to Akwasi Appiah.

God punish Kwasi Appiah for destroying our team. Every choice Kwesi Appiah takes is wrong.
You give Asamoah Gyan captains arm band because he sings(jama) and that boost morale of the team. That is primitive.
Akwasi Appiah has had issues with Essien, Muntari, KP Boateng, Dede, Jordan, Kwarasey and more to come. We still call this fool a coach.
It is obvious that he is intimidated by top quality players.
Clueless stupid coach destroying Ghana football. God punish you
